The Department of Aerospace Studies provides a four-year program of instruction for
all qualified U.S. citizens, male and female, divided into two phases, each of two
years duration. The first, termed the General Military Course, offers instruction
in the foundation of leadership and Aerospace-age citizenship. Secondly, termed the
Professional Officer Course, builds upon these foundations in developing upperclassmen
who are to become Air Force officers and serve on active duty upon graduation and
commissioning.

Instruction in Aerospace Studies has been an important phase of the curriculum at
the University of Memphis since 1951. Active duty Air Force personnel, approved by
the University president, are detailed by the Department of the Air Force to administer
the instructional program. Air Force officers serve under appointment by the University
as Professor or Assistant Professor of Aerospace Studies.
